datetime64[ns] dtype loses hours, minutes, seconds when uploaded to CARTO

See original GitHub issue

I have a dataset of earthquakes from USGS, and I make sure that the data type for the time column is datetime64[ns] by using pd.to_datetime() and checking the dtypes of the DataFrame. Upon writing the dataset to CARTO, I notice that the hours, minutes, and seconds go missing… hm… 🤔

In the Jupyter notebook, everything looks good:

After writing to CARTO, time information goes missing:

Reading the dataset back into Juypter notebook, the time information is still missing:

This might just be a CARTO upload problem, but maybe there’s something we can do to fix the data type conversion.
