What is the best Lua OOP library in terms of speed, syntax convenience, LOC and license? Thank you.
I've found LOOP. http://loop.luaforge.net/index.html It offers pretty nice syntax:
local oo = require "loop.base" local
Date = oo.class
{
-- default field values
day = 1, month = 1, year = 1900,
}
local birthday = Date {} -- instance
But I do not like the license.
And: http://lua-users.org/wiki/ObjectLua
I recommend checking out http://lua-users.org/wiki/ObjectOrientedProgramming. It has links to the most popular Lua OOP libraries and instructions on how to roll your own if necessary. The latter seems to be a very popular choice.

I've seen some great in-browser tutorials and/or practice exercises in other languages. To name a few:
Ruby: Tryruby.org
JS: Codeacademy.com
Rails: railsforzombies.com
I've also seen great Java algorithm challenges at codingbat.com.
I haven't found anything similar for learning C, or Objective-C (which is my real goal). Any suggestions?
go ahead with http://developer.apple.com/library/mac/documentation/cocoa/conceptual/objectivec/objc.pdf
for Objective-C. It works great on my browser- opens up the pdf.

For me both of them looks quite similar if it's going to features, but it's hard to say without using them (yet). So I have few questions:
1) Are they really feature comparable (more or less)?
2) Is there any example of enterprise or big open source system using any of them?
3) I have impression that Squeryl have better documentation, is lack of documentation in case of ScalaQuery real problem?
4) Which of them is growing faster and/or is faster on fixing the bugs?
5) Is any of them easier to use / more productive?

I've been learning PHP OOP for quite a while and I've loved getting to know the language, finding solutions to problems and so forth.
Although, quite often, people keep recommending different frameworks for me to start using. I can imagine using a framework is more efficient, time effective and so forth but It seems to take quite a lot of the fun out of things.
My next challenge is to create a fully functional tutorial website and blog.
My question is, do you use a PHP framework and should I really start using one?
I was also debating whether to use CodeIgniter or CakePHP...

I choose the search engine for large project. Sunspot I liked, at least from the fact that we no need to run a cron job to reindex the data. But when I saw this http://www.vijedi.net/2010/ruby-full-text-search-performance-thinking-sphinx-vs-sunspot-solr/ I began to doubt.
It depends on user preference, so there's no straightforward answer. Maybe you could go through pros and cons of each one and decide for yourself?
