I think Uncle Bob got cancelled /s, but politics aside, I don't think he was necessarily wrong about good code documenting itself, but it came with a lot of direction about what then exactly constitutes good code. If people don't bother to hone the skills of good types and methods, well named and with clear responsibilities, of course they're not clearing the bar to drop the comments. Having grown more senior, I believe I have gotten a little better at expressing meaning and intent through the code itself, and I'm surely writing a lot less comments because of it, which seems a win overall.
