It's useful in all the cases where a blocks are useful in Ruby. It
simply saves typing out "(fn [])" and IMO makes the code look a little
cleaner.

eg.
(with_file "myfile.txt"
  (write "asdf")
  (close))

compared to.
(with_file "myfile.txt"
  (fn []
    (write "asdf")
    (close)))

There's arguably no difference. I just prefer the first one.
