    Yes, when I don't have any out of band method for obtaining the key. Also, the sources aren't the same, the binary is downloaded from a mirror / CDN while the links I posted are fr…

    For those who like me are wary of running unverified binaries: - checksums: https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/nightly/late... - signatures: https://ftp.mozilla.org/pu…

    ClojureScript won't have the startup time of the JVM and is probably better suited for command line scripting.
