Precision and brevity are my guides for code comments after a careful ux analysis of comment encounters in code.

Anything that makes me pause while reading code or a comment is something I’ll strive in a timeboxed manner to simplify.

It’s not always possible, but my code doesn’t get a lot of style comments or comments about readability anymore so seems to be working.
