As PostgreSQL stores timestamps with a fractional part, does it mean that

miss
records with values of f equal to 23:59:59.1234 or so?
Answering to myself: depends on how timestamp was defined at table
creation time
time, timestamp, and interval accept an optional precision value p which
specifies the number of fractional digits retained in the seconds field.
By default, there is no explicit bound on precision. The allowed range
of p is from 0 to 6 for the timestamp and interval types..
As the columns in question were explicitly created as timestamp(0) in
the database, they store no fractional part, so no matter at which
moment during the 59-th second the column is updated, it's always
exactly 59-th.
