I came from a background of profusely commenting code to a job(last year) where comments are explicitly discouraged and code reviews will be failed if there is a comment.
There are a few cases where comments are allowed - for very complex issues - but other than that comments are not allowed.

I struggled at first but it has actually made me a better developer as I now have to read and understand what others have don in code rather than just read a comment and think I know what a method or stored procedure does.

So I am a convert to sparsely commented code as I tend to agree with the principle that writing comments means that you have to keep the comments up-to-date and it has encouraged me to both write better code and understand other peoples' code.
“That which can be asserted without evidence, can be dismissed without evidence.”
