I don't talk about "mundane dayjob stuff" here as much as I do the spicier compiler tidbits and daydreamy stuff, but: I just finished a several-month odyssey building an implementation of Wasm exception handling for Wasmtime (github.com/bytecodealliance/wa), involving IR design and careful tweaks to Cranelift to support the new control flow and metadata outputs, full GC'd exception objects, an unwinder, and the Wasm opcode level semantics. This was very fun! I hope to write a blog post about it soon...
