Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Do you (or Microsoft DS teams in general) tackle any causal problems? Apparently, uber tries to solve these issues, they created https://github.com/uber/causalml

[S] Python packages to replace R
There's some causality focused packages. Nothing like scikit-learn or statsmodels yet because it's all based on very recent research, but this one: https://github.com/uber/causalml

Good way to segment a/b test results for insight or narrative?
I agree that uplift trees and CATE methods are promising here. If you’re in Python, check out Uber’s open-source causalml.

UpliftML: An uplift modeling library that handles web scale datasets
Many libraries have recently emerged that offer implementations of algorithms for heterogeneous treatment effect estimation (or, CATE estimation). The most well-known examples are Microsoft's EconML (https://github.com/microsoft/EconML) and Uber's CausalML (https://github.com/uber/causalml). Existing libraries require all data to fit in memory, which is often a limitation for industry applications on web scale datasets. Booking.com's new library offers similar functionality on top of Spark, enabling web scale uplift modeling.

R, I love you.
you like causal inference? it must be nice to be able to use libraires like dowhy, causal ml, and ananke right? 🤔🤔🤔

Model Re-Training with Intervention Effects
There aren't many general solutions because it will really depend on your domain. There are some packages that specifically work for "modeling under interventions" (like this https://github.com/uber/causalml although I have never tried it). In general, if you have enough data between intervention and not-intervention, you could train two different models and then apply whichever one makes sense (e.g. if you wanted to find the highest-churn-risk users among those who have already had the intervention, use the model trained on the prior intervention cases).

[q] before/after test
EconML and CausalLift are pretty good python packages that help you build uplift models. scikit-uplift is a decent sklearn style wrapper package that can be helpful as well. One of the drawbacks of these packages is they only allow for the modeling of a single treatment. mr-uplift is a newer package that allows you to model the multiple treatment effects simultaneously. I haven't used it personally, but it does look fairly interesting.
What are some alternatives?
EconML - ALICE (Automated Learning and Intelligence for Causation and Economics) is a Microsoft Research project aimed at applying Artificial Intelligence concepts to economic decision making. One of its goals is to build a toolkit that combines state-of-the-art machine learning techniques with econometrics in order to bring automation to complex causal inference problems. To date, the ALICE Python SDK (econml) implements orthogonal machine learning algorithms such as the double machine learning work of Chernozhukov et al. This toolkit is designed to measure the causal effect of some treatment variable(s) t on an outcome variable y, controlling for a set of features x.
