Business in this case means a clear transactional mindset.
And you do get paid, just not in cash.
You push your brand, your credibility as a security researcher and all that. You earn social credits and reputation.
And that is why you tried to hook people to watch your talk.
I bet the talk is good. Great, even.
But this (maybe even not conscious) transactionality just does not belong in that space. HN, for example, is a much better place for it.
