Comment (by jbronn):

 PostGIS will properly cast internally geography types (hence why `&&`
 operator works).  The root cause of the issue is that despite the
 documentation, the `~=` operator was never implemented for geography
 types.  I had a [http://logs.qgis.org/postgis/%23postgis.2010-08-09.log
 discussion with Paul Ramsey] in `#postgis` about this issue, and he
 confirmed it was a "doc mistake" and "only && was implemented for
 geography."
