I'm familiar with what a "third place" is ... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Third_place https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Third_place
I'm just remarking that the role of the second place -- the office -- has also been diminished
Obviously you don't literally need the "second place" to have the "third place" -- but my point was that in-person interaction has been reduced even further, compared to the 1990's
Probably in 1990, few people would have predicted that the second place would also go away, at least for some affluent part of the population
- t-writescode 2y agoWhen I read what you said, I processed it as needless pedantry, implying the "not work and home" should be called the Second Place now, throwing away the historical term and its meaning. If that's not the case, I apologize! edit: as either needless pedantry, or an unfamiliarity with the Third [Sp/Pl]ace.
