Hey Diego -- I checked out your article because I sympathize with your plight. This is totally off topic and unsolicited, but I thought I would give you my thoughts in the hope that it helps. I think my feedback might help, because I suspect that you're like me (you fail where I also fail).
It's a good piece, but I suspect that you didn't get upvotes not because the article isn't "sexy", but because it doesn't really conform with the format of content of the modern web.
Issues: can't tell what the article is about from the title, can't tell how i will benefit from reading your article from the title, first couple paragraphs don't grab me, "wall of text" feeling when you open the article, can't tell if I should give you the benefit on your thoughts because no biographical info or indication that you're important, and it's too long.
