You have a 21 day old account which has posted like 6 or 7 self-promotional posts in that time, and basically nothing else. What did you expect?

From the HN guidelines[1]:

Please don't use HN primarily for promotion. It's ok to post your own stuff part of the time, but the primary use of the site should be for curiosity.

They've probably been declared [dead] because your new account has nothing except promotion of the same thing.
