Smart_Plan is a channel about understanding complex systems — and making them work better.
On this channel, I share clear, practical, and educational content drawn from both my professional engineering background and my personal interests, including:
🔧 Systems Engineering
• Real-world explanations of systems thinking
• Engineering principles without unnecessary jargon
🚗 Vehicle Diagnostics
• OBD2, electronic diagnostics, and fault-finding
• Practical knowledge for enthusiasts, technicians, and engineers
💪 Health, Fitness & Sustainable Weight Loss
• Applying systems thinking to health and fat loss
The common theme is simple:
👉 If you understand the system, you can improve the outcome.
Smart_Plan is about learning how things really work — and using that knowledge intelligently.
Subscribe for educational insights, practical explanations, and honest perspectives from someone who enjoys breaking complicated topics down into something useful.

This video has already triggered some great discussion in the comments — and I love seeing how differently people interpret Verification vs Validation depending on whether they come from software, hardware, aerospace, or automotive.
Most engineers can quote the definitions.
Far fewer agree on how they actually work in real projects.
If you’ve ever sat in a review thinking:
“We’re passing all the tests… but I’m not convinced this is right.”
This one’s for you.
💬 I’m especially curious:
Where do you see the biggest breakdown in your projects — requirements, testing, or real-world use?

🚗💡 When a “Smart” Car Outsmarts a Cheap Tool…
I plugged a budget OBD2 scanner into my BMW i3, fully expecting instant answers.
What I got instead? Silence. No fault codes. No reset. Just a smug dashboard warning.
But the scanner did read the VIN.
So what’s really going on here?
Is the car hiding something… or is the tool just out of its depth?
This is a perfect example of why modern vehicles are systems, not just engines with wires.
Sometimes the problem isn’t the fault — it’s the interface.
💬 Question for you:
Have you ever had a “check engine” light that a scanner couldn’t explain?

🚀 What exactly IS Systems Engineering?
Is it project management? Is it design? Or is it something else entirely?
In my latest video, I break down what systems engineering really means — and why it’s at the heart of every successful project, from aircraft to smartphones.

I’d love to hear from you:
How do YOU define systems engineering?
Do you think it’s more about the people, the process, or the technology?
Drop your thoughts in the comments — let’s get a real discussion going!
