Rust might change these numbers a bit.

C/C++ are very stable and backwards compatible, Rust tends to be more aggressive at the moment of changing things.

Rust’s core team are pretty fanatic about backwards compatibilty, though. Best practices are still rapidly evolving but if you have code that compiles and works, it should continue to compile and work indefinitely.
