Can anybody compile all of Paul Graham's essays into a .mobi file?

Question

I love his essays, but I can't read the longer ones on a computer monitor or my phone. I'd rather do it on my Kindle. Is there a way someone could convert them all to a single .mobi file?

Someone has done this before. No need to reinvent the wheel in this case!https://github.com/ofou/graham-essays

I have written a tool[1] to backup blogs to pdf, you can use it to save Paul's essays first, and use some other tool[2] to merge those PDFs to one mobi file.[1]: https://github.com/jiacai2050/blog-backup [2]: https://superuser.com/questions/54041/how-to-merge-pdfs-usin...

Have a look at pandoc. That's usually my go-to tool when converting file formats. It supports mobi.

I just did this in like 5 minutes in Python. If you send me $5 of bitcoin I'll send you the .mobi;)
