allow .std() of timedelta types · Issue #8471 · pandas-dev/pandas · GitHub

This currently raises TypeError as its disabled in core/nanops.py, see here: d29d4c6

The issue is that .var() can generate a value that is too big for the timedeltas to hold propery, and std CALLS var.

solns:

• reduce the value of the timedeltas going into var to make them work (and inflate on exit), e.g. divide by 1e9 or something. lose some small amount of precision.
• allow std to return a valid value by passing a flag thru to var (and don't wrap the results). a bit hacky
