In this episode Donn and Kaushik talk to the very talented Michael Bailey about core Java principles and practices. Michael has quite the deep and passionate understanding of Java and we thought it would only be perfect to share this episode with a very passionate Java crowd - Android developers. We talk about IntelliJ, Testing, Inheritance, Static Code analysis, Garbage Collection, Data Structures and much more in this episode. If you're looking to learn a thing or two about Java, then this is your episode. We hope you enjoy.
