I think you are making exactly his point. Practicing code as a craft, caring about how you do it, how well you do it, and what it’s ultimately used for is, as you correctly point out, not going to bring you profit or employment.

So maybe there’s something wrong with how we organise work?

The simplest way to do this is described here: https://mathworld.wolfram.com/SpherePointPicking.html

Essentially:

1. Generate uniformly random values u,v between 0 and 1.

2. Then find their spherical coordinates as:

theta = 2 pi u; phi = acos(2 v -1)

Honestly I’m unsure why you’d choose a method any more complicated.

If you select "All data" for their user count, you'll notice a sharp shift in the gradient of the user count about a year ago. Any idea what would cause this?

Since no one else has mentioned it, I appreciated the Arrested Development references. Very cute.
