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.

Changing std:sort at Google’s Scale and Beyond
The function is trying to get the median, which is not defined for an empty set. With this particular implementation, there is an assert for that:

Unrelatedly, but from the same section:
> Fixes are trivial, access the nth element only after the call being made. Be careful.
Wouldn't the proper fix to do the nth_element for the larget element first (for those cases that don't do that already) and then adjust the end to be the begin + larger_n for the second nth_element call? Otherwise the second call will check [begin + larger_n, end) again for no reason at all.

CatBoost and Water Pumps
The data contains a large number of categorical features. The most suitable for obtaining a base-line model, in my opinion, is CatBoost. It is a high-performance, open-source library for gradient boosting on decision trees.
