Description: Timestamptz data type is inaccurate
Details:
I don't know what's going on, but basically, for some dates timestamptz is
loosing parts of the date/time (like the timezone, etc.)
db=# select '2076-03-30 19:57:05-05'::timestamptz;
timestamptz
---------------------
2076-03-31 00:57:05
(1 row)
db=# select '2037-03-30 19:57:05-05'::timestamptz;
timestamptz
------------------------
2037-03-30 20:57:05-04
(1 row)
db=# select '2006-03-30 19:57:05-05'::timestamptz + '100 years'::interval;
?column?
---------------------
2106-03-30 19:57:05
(1 row)
Note that the hours, minutes or timezone aren't correct. I tried the last
one to make sure it's not due to the parser.
Thanks for your help.
