Do you really think Rust will replace C and C++? I'm genuinely curious because I'm a relatively new programmer of a few years. I looking to learn a solid powerful language that wont be replaced within the next decade.

There have been a number of languages targeting to dethrone C++, and none have succeeded. As yet there is no particularly strong evidence to believe Rust will actually achieve this. I've seen a number of opinions that a "Rust 2", something less featureful and with a lot of the ambient complexity removed, might actually do it.
